Go on our most surreal hunt in L.A.

On this whirlwind tour, you’ll see almost the entire Natural History Museum—from dinosaurs to diamonds, planets to penguins. Your challenge: follow the clever clues and come up with the right answers to fun, funny questions about the objects on display. Highlights include Megamouth the shark, a life-size African watering hole, Zuni fetishes, unusual moments in California history, and much more.

This game is a fun, weatherproof team-building activity for companies in nearby downtown L.A.

You might search for such sights as…

  • Lions enjoying a feast that’s black and white and red all over.
  • A royal ring associated with the Queen of Prussia.
  • A prickly mom keeping an eye on a porcupette.
  • Three skulls that look like masks from a dino version of Scream.
  • A snake with a taste for butterflies.

Puzzled? No worries: we left out some essential clues and directions. The questions are designed so that you can find the answer only when you’re in the right spot and looking at the right thing. You don’t need any previous knowledge to triumph—you just need good teamwork and comfortable shoes.

A Kids Edition of this game is also available for mini archaeologists. If you’re looking for something different and fun for a birthday party, school field trip, or camp outing, you’ve found it! Recommended for ages 7 and up.
